Booking

Typically, we conduct email consultations, which can be easily arranged. However, on occasion, we extend an invitation for an in-person meeting to delve into more detailed discussions.


Here is how to get started:

Step 1

Study our tattoo style thoroughly. Then review our portfolio again to ensure that your tattoo idea aligns with our style and that we can accurately bring your vision to life. This is crucial! We specialize in IREZUMI and are deeply committed to delivering exceptional results, which is why we are highly selective with our designs.

F.A.Q.

    We work by appointments only, NO walk-ins. Our studio is open everyday but Wednesdays.


    Tattooing always: 11 am – 4 pm

  • Can we discuss my tattoo idea by phone/Zoom?

    At our studio, we specialize exclusively in custom work, which means that detailed discussions are necessary to understand your unique vision. To facilitate this process, we typically offer email consultations, which are convenient to set up. However, there are occasions when we may invite you to visit us in person for a more in-depth discussion.


    Unfortunately discussions over the phone or through video conferencing platforms like Zoom are not supported.

  • What to do if I don’t need a consultation, I just have one simple question about tattoo…

    To make it easier for us to answer your tattoo-related questions, we kindly ask you to fill out a consultation form. While email is usually sufficient for most inquiries, having some basic information beforehand will help us provide more accurate answers.

  • I’ve never get tattooed before, what is the process? How can we start?

    To ensure that your tattoo idea can be brought to life, we require a detailed discussion. Please request a consultation and provide a brief description along with reference images. If the idea is feasible, we will continue the discussion via email. In some cases, an in-person meeting may also be arranged. Once both you and the artist agree to proceed, we can schedule your first tattoo appointment.

  • Do I have to pay a deposit? Is there any payment agreement must be signed before I pay my security deposit?

    Before booking your first tattoo appointment, it is important to familiarize yourself with our deposit and cancellation policy. Once you have read and agreed to the policy, you can proceed to pay the required deposit of $500 (plus transaction fee) and select a date for your appointment. Please note that all deposits must be paid online using a card through the payment link provided. Kindly be aware that appointments cannot be booked without the deposit.


  • When my tattoo design will be ready? How can I see it?

    After detailed discussion, you will be asked to provide a few photos and basic measurements of the body part to be tattooed. Approximately 1-2 weeks before your first tattoo appointment, you will receive a Photoshop mockup of your tattoo design via email. The mockup will show the line work of your design placed on the photos or 3D model, giving you an idea of the approximate positioning. The precise positioning and any other design adjustments will be made during the first tattoo appointment. Shading and coloring will be added to your tattoo during subsequent appointments, starting from the second one. 

  • What is the waiting time before I can book my tattoo appointment? How long is your waiting list?

    The normal waiting time between your tattoo discussion and the first tattoo appointment can vary from 4 to 10 months, depending on current demand. Unfortunately, there is no way to expedite this process. Appointments are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis. 


  • Can I book few appointments ahead?

    Yes, this is the best way to schedule appointments for large-scale tattoo projects. However, it is currently only possible to book appointments one by one. Once the date of your first tattoo appointment is chosen, you will receive a self-scheduling link that allows you to choose all your subsequent appointment dates yourself.

  • What is recommended break between tattoo appointments?

    The time period between your tattoo appointments is crucial for proper healing. This break allows your body to heal effectively. The actual healing time varies from person to person and is subjective. We recommend taking a break of at least 3-4 weeks. This duration is usually sufficient to ensure that the skin in the tattooed area is ready for more ink. 

  • I’m out of state and going to travel to get tattooed. Can we discuss my tattoo idea by phone or Zoom?

    We only do custom work, so a detailed discussion is always required. Typically, we prefer email consultations, although we may occasionally invite clients to visit us in person for a more in-depth conversation.


    Email is an effective way to exchange details about tattoo ideas and share visual references. It allows for a flexible discussion without time constraints. Unfortunately, phone or Zoom calls do not offer the same level of freedom, so we do not conduct consultations through those mediums.


  • I’ve filled out your consultation form but have never get any reply.

    Typically, we respond to all inquiries within 4-5 days. However, there may be instances where we miss certain messages due to incorrect email addresses or other factors. If you feel that you have been waiting too long for a response, please reply to the confirmation email you received after submitting your form to inform us. Additionally, please remember to check your Junk Mail before doing so.


  • I’d like to estimate my tattoo total price before my consultation, can I call or email you?

    The full price for tattoos cannot be quoted over the phone or email. This is because it depends on various subjective factors, including the actual size, body location, amount of details, and technical requirements involved. The amount of time needed to complete a project can be roughly estimated after a detailed discussion of the design, but not before. 

  • Whats the average price for Japanese Full Sleeve?

    Unfortunately, estimating the total price is quite challenging. Each individual's metabolic process is unique, and every tattoo design is also unique. It is impossible to predict how the skin will react during the tattooing and healing process. The time required to complete a sleeve can vary greatly, ranging from 15 to 35 hours. A more accurate estimate can only be provided after a detailed discussion of the specific requirements.

  • What is usual tattoo session time?

    A normal tattoo session typically lasts for 4 hours. However, longer sessions can be too stressful for the customer's body and may hinder the proper healing process. Therefore, we do not offer longer sessions.


    For our out-of-state clients, we provide a solution called "double-sessions." This involves scheduling two consecutive days of 4-hour sessions. While this method is still quite stressful, it significantly reduces the number of trips required. 

  • Can I cancel my appointment?

    No. However, you can reschedule your appointment once if necessary. Please note that a minimum of 72 hours notice is required. Failure to provide sufficient notice will result in the loss of your deposit. There are no exceptions to this policy. The new appointment must be scheduled within 30 days. After that, a new deposit will be required to schedule. For more information, please refer to our Deposit and Cancellation Policy.
